As WW3 develops, no one is going to be dissing the "preppers." What have you done?

That map needs to be updated. A few of those red dots NE of Kamloops need to be changed to "Fires of note"

Yup, it's been estimated to be that for a few days now. There's too much smoke to make an exact measurement, but chances are that it will be getting much bigger as the heat returns later this week.

Re: BC Wildfire Map
The Kootenays are getting all the heat. They're the only place below 20% humidity, and the danger rating is back up to high and extreme...

Re: BC Wildfire Map
I agree Frisk, I had no idea!
I just wanted to say thanks to Glacier for posting this technical stuff. It's interesting.
I saw a story on the news a while back that (if I recall correctly - no one quote me on this please) that fire danger is greatest when the 3-30's are met. That's temperature over 30 degrees, winds over 30 and humidity below 30.
So Glacier, are the Kootenays the only place under 20% in the province now?
